Two quick thoughts: in some ways, we’re still in a marketplace of rebuild, and you could argue this was a pricey pic to start a deep universe DC franchise. Again, Warners couldn’t have seen that strong dollar coming abroad. Black Adam will be lucky to top out at $400M WW. Some rivals have snarked to me about the big cost for this movie at $200M before P&A, that Black Adam won’t profit like Johnson’s Fast & Furious spinoff Hobbs & Shaw, which had the benefit of $200M out of China (again, Uni only got a 25% rental there)and a better exchange rate, that film doing $759M WW and yielding an $84M net profit after all ancillaries. Total running domestic cume stands at $137.4M. Sunday AM Writethru: after Saturday update, with chart: Before Disney/Marvel’s Wakanda Forever comes in and does $175M-$200M next weekend, providing a complete rebirth to the domestic box office, don’t knock New Line’s Black Adamthis weekend, which had a fantastic hold of -33% for a third weekend of $18.5M.
